MILW 2-8-2 #468 - Milwaukee Roiad |
| Description: |
Sadly, this appears to be a scrap line that Milwaukee Road 2-8-2 Mikado #468 is in now. This may very well be the last photo ever taken of it before the scrapper's torch does it in. Although the date on the photo is June of 1952, it may not have been scrapped according to date in the Baldwin records.
